Age	Commit message (Collapse)	Author
2008-12-15	sigaction overhaul as described in docs/sigaction.txt	Denis Vlasenko
	Run tested on i386.
2008-12-13	Remove the rest of "bounded pointers" scaffolding. gcc website says"	Denis Vlasenko
	"Bounds Checking Projects... This project has been abandoned" for four years at least.
2008-12-01	fix sigset_t size for mips (it's the only arch with 128 signals).	Denis Vlasenko
	fix _NSIG for it. better document what's going on in sigaction(). seems to not induce any actual code changes (sans mips).
2008-11-20	next portion of libc_hidden_proto removal	Denis Vlasenko

2008-10-19	- fix sigaction on older kernels (Michael Deutschmann)	Bernhard Reutner-Fischer
	In issue #5554 Michael wrote: The implementation of sigaction on i386 for older kernels makes the system call using an inline asm element with two flaws: 1. The asm is not marked as depending on the kact structure or modifying the koact structure. Thus, GCC is free to assume these structures need not be kept consistent, allowing it to remove all initialization of kact. 2. The asm allows the signal number to be provided as a memory reference. But this allows GCC to provide a stack-relative operand, which will break because the assembler saves %ebx on the stack before using that operand. 1 didn't use to be a problem in practice because GCC 4.2.* didn't seize the optimization opportunity. GCC 4.3.2, however, optimizes out the "kact.sa_flags = act->sa_flags \| SA_RESTORER;" line, so that the kernel sees garbage in sa_flags. This can result in the kernel seeing the SA_RESETHAND flag, causing erratic behaviour in signal dependent programs. 2 becomes an issue if "-fomit-frame-pointer" is provided. In uClibc-0.9.29 it isn't, uClibc-0.9.30-rc2 does use the flag by default.
2008-07-23	- trim any trailing whitespace	Bernhard Reutner-Fischer

2008-05-19	Moving libc_hidden_proto's into #ifdef UCLIBC_INTERNAL block	Denis Vlasenko
	in string.h and strings.h. This caught unguarded string ops in libc/inet/ethers.c __ether_line_w() function. I will wait for fallout reports for a week or so, then continue converting more libc_hidden_proto's.
2007-07-29	Remove stray code alignment (.align 16 and .align 4 directives)	Denis Vlasenko
	from i386 and x86_64.
2006-02-02	even the hidden version of the weaks in libc (as strong in libpthread) have ↵	Peter S. Mazinger
	to be weaks
2006-01-26	Get rid of missing prototype warnings	Peter S. Mazinger

2006-01-25	Guard the use of sigreturn as in x86_64, thx blindvt	Peter S. Mazinger

2006-01-23	make sigaction/raise/sigwait/siglongjmp/longjmp weak_alias, these are in ↵	Peter S. Mazinger
	libpthread as well
2006-01-23	Make i386 build w/ -std=c99 (almost)	Peter S. Mazinger

2006-01-15	make gcc4 happy w/ hidden_def/proto, correct some typos	Peter S. Mazinger

2006-01-14	hidden_def/hidden_proto: convert all users (I hope) termios split, add some ↵	Peter S. Mazinger
	missing headers, other jump relocs removed
2005-12-10	Merge from NPTL branch. Bring in the remaining changes for sigaction.	"Steven J. Hill"

2005-12-08	Try to mimic glibc sigaction, sjhill, could you please test w/ this version?	Peter S. Mazinger

2005-12-03	More hiding, including __mempcpy	Peter S. Mazinger

2005-12-01	Hide mostly used functions	Peter S. Mazinger

2005-11-21	tweak restore function definitions like glibc does it to get rid of warnings	Mike Frysinger

2003-02-03	Oops. I'd left an extra invocation of sigaction in there...	Eric Andersen

2003-01-22	Update sigaction syscall names to act more like glibc. Fix the x86 sigaction	Eric Andersen
	implementation such that gdb can actually debug signal handlers. Gdb behaves much better now, for example, on multi-threaded apps. -Erik
